I don't have a problem with others enjoying/liking those cross and skullbones garments, etc. but I can't get past the old mentality of them being the symbol for poison...LOL (I know I'm weird like that...thoroughly modern in some things but so "backwards" in others.) My extra info will be things I "please" don't want rather than do want. I;ve been doing like you...when I order our Yorkie something, I've added another (if affordable) but I'm waiting to see who we get before picking a garment. I've primarily bought non-gender toys so far but I've noticed some don't want toys either...LOL If I get someone who doesn't want toys, I'll just be that farther ahead on the next gift exchange. Sooner or later, it's bound to even out...LOL |
Glad you owned your yorkie in time! -- Just boarding him a little longer! I was thinking you were going to hate hearing that. Now, no worries!
I am with you on the skull and crossbones thing. I have not quite got into it either -- reminds me of death. Guess I should have mentioned that in my GE listing. I don't mind the ones saying they don't like something in particular or the ones that their yorkies can't eat some things. But I priced a couple of the designer outfits that were asked for and WOW! (example: Could not find one Monkey Daze item of clothing for less than $30. Monkey Daze sleeper -- $49.95, Monkey Daze Vest --$65.99, MD denim skirt $49.95).
It would be nice if we had a price range to stay within. I do want to put together a great package with some variety, one that the SB and SB parent will both love and still put beans on the table at home
. I think I am getting a pretty good idea by looking through past packages though. It won't be a problem once I find out who to buy for.
I wish we didn't have to wait so long to get our SB. I stopped by Petsmart today and it was hard not to buy a bunch of extra things. But I decided to wait in case I do get one with specific desires. Maybe Admin could go ahead and match people up after every 20 or so signups, then we could get busy buying. (Hint,hint!) I would love to get a SB puppy, ... or a girl, ... or a boy....lol! It will all be fun!
